At least six Bayern Munich supporters were injured during clashes with hooded people who stormed the pitch during a youth game in Athens, police officials said on Tuesday.
The UEFA Youth League game between Bayern Munich and Olympiakos was halted at the 84th minute after a group of about 8 hooded people riding motorcycles and carrying bats and sticks stormed the pitch and attacked the fans in the stands.
Olympiakos were trailing 4-0 when the violence erupted, just hours before a Champions League game between the two teams at the Karaiskaki Stadium in Piraeus.
“The security guard was also injured,” a police official said, adding that there were no arrests so far.
